Following the vote on the two pro- posals, Godwin served notice on the house that “tomorrow I will have one more opportunity to bring this up. If this vote stands it will make more radicals than the 10 leading Com- munist organizers in the country.” Representative Nels P. Noben at- tempted to reconsider the action, but, was ruled out of order because he had not voted on the prevailing side, “Well—I don’t care what we do,” he shouted, “but we're going to get Justice for those people down there.” “Well—why didn’t you give it to them, then?” Smith shouted back. Twichell Voices Opposition L. L, Twichell of Cass opposed pass- age of the resolution on the grounds that it called for an expenditure of money which could only be made by concurrent action of the house and senate, he claimed. Smith explained his support of the bill declaring he was “not interested in the legal question of where the money ts coming from but in the good name of the city I come from and of the facts and circumstances sur- rounding this strike.” ‘The resolution would have appoint- ed & committee of five members of the house to investigate the strike to determine whether laws governing filing of informations should be changed. The committee would have investigated and returned its report during the “present legislative ses- sion.” ‘With the house quieted, members Moved forward on consideration of if the measure is passed by the senate and signed by the governor, will be empowered to administer all monies, federal and state, for relief purposes. Match Federal Funds Twichell said the measure carried the support of the governor and of the federal government, and was de- signed to handle $1,000,000 which would come from the proposed sales tax for relief purposes, The money would match partially funds to be allocated the state by the federal “This is to show the government our good faith,” said Twichell, “we expect by this sct-up to get what we want from the federal government.” Godwin explained that “if we do hot pass this bill, we will remain a federal set-up. This brings the ad- ministration of funds into the hands of North Dakota, on approximately the same basis as before the federal government took it over.” ‘The house passed the measure and sent it to the senate by a vote of 95 to 11 with seven not voting. It car- ried an emergency clause which will put it in effect immediately upon passage and signing by the governor. Call for Board of Seven ‘The measure calls for appointment of @ seven-member board, by the gov- ernor, attorney general and chief an emergency act.

One of the members must be a World War veteran, under terms of the act. An appropriation of $25,000 is made in the measure to set up the organ- ization. Godwin told the house that the moratorium proposal had the “governor's approval in order to legally Telieve him of certain duties now be- ing performed by him under the pro- claimed moratorium.” He said the bill was patterned after the Minne- sota law, which has been upheld as Hee) by the United States supreme The measure was introduced by Godwin and R.
